Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The best-selling guide for coping with changes in life and work, named one of the 50 all-time best books in self-help and personal development Whether you choose it or it is thrust upon you, change brings both opportunities and turmoil. Since Transitions was first published, this supportive guide has helped hundreds of thousands of readers cope with these issues by providing an elegantly simple yet profoundly insightful roadmap of the transition process. With the understanding born of both personal and professional experience, William Bridges takes readers step by step through the three stages of any transition: The Ending, The Neutral Zone, and, eventually, The New Beginning. Bridges explains how each stage can be understood and embraced, leading to meaningful and productive movement into a hopeful future. With a new introduction highlighting how the advice in the book continues to apply and is perhaps even more relevant today, and a new chapter devoted to change in the workplace, Transitions will remain the essential guide for coping with the one constant in life: change.

Book excerpt: Despite the increase in postsecondary enrollment, students with disabilities continue to be underrepresented in postsecondary education when compared to their non-disabled peers. High schools and community colleges face the challenge of creating optimal learning environments for students with disabilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a transition program for students with disabilities. The intent was twofold: (a) to examine the extent to which a transition program for high school students with disabilities facilitated the transition success and retention of students with documented disabilities at the postsecondary level, and (b) to identify program characteristics that contributed to student success. The researcher used an impact evaluation strategy to conduct the study. The study focused on program accomplishments of a single transition program for student with disabilities at a community college in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States. The researcher conducted open-ended interviews and examined program documents in regards to enrollment patterns and retention of students over a 3-year period. The evaluation of the transition program was guided by the program components of the 1997 Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The study was significant on several levels: concrete information about the relevancy and effectiveness of a transition programs, few researchers have evaluated the effectiveness of transition programs, and very few community colleges have established formal transition programs for high school students with disabilities. The major conclusions were: (a) students with documented disabilities can be more successful at the postsecondary level if they first enroll in a transitional program; (b) the earlier students with documented disabilities are involved in a transitional program, the better their chances are for success at the postsecondary level; (c) students with documented disabilities are interested in enhancing their opportunities for success and they benefit from learning about their disabilities, academic strengths, and weaknesses; and (d) when students with disabilities successfully participate in the mainstream culture inside and outside of the college, they are likely to be more successful. Several major implications emerged from the study: (1) community colleges should become more proactive in promoting access for students with disabilities; (2) institutionalization (mainstreaming) of the transition program could explain how the transition program became essential components of the overall student services program at the institution; and (3) community colleges may need to reconsider what must change if we are to make transition programs more effective learning environments for students with disabilities. Institutionalization of programs and services may be the best way to have a deep and lasting affect on how students with disabilities succeed or fail in the community college environment. -- Abstract.

Book excerpt: This study examined the design, implementation, and assessment of a ninth grade orientation program aimed at improving academic success and organizational commitment by cultivating a high sense of engagement among incoming students at a large suburban high school. Research questions pertained to the impact of a middle school orientation program on ninth grade students' engagement in, what freshman students perceive as the most effective components of the program, and what an action research team learned in their collaboration to develop the program. Through focus group interviews, surveys, and examination of student achievement data, this study employed action research to examine student transition within the organization. Findings indicate that (a) transition program participants became involved in multiple extra-curricular opportunities, (b) student participants most valued peer insight and experiential learning, and (c) team members learned and grew through their participation in the project. Future research should consider (a) using action research for professional learning within district, (b) opportunities for employing student leaders to co-design and implement transition activities, (c) different transition approaches within vertical clusters, and (d) longitudinal studies for ongoing transition program action research.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 51 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition from elementary school into middle school can be a very challenging time for students. This is a time of great change; mentally, socially, emotionally, and physically. Most students whom move into middle school look forward to this change because it signifies a bridge between childhood and adulthood. Transitioning into middle school also indicates more independence and responsibility being placed on these sixth-graders. At the same time, there are students whom do not feel comfortable with this sudden increase of change. These students whom do not transition well tend to exhibit an academic and behavior downfall. This downfall is associated with new and higher expectations set upon them. This transition program was designed to assist teachers, students, and their families make a smooth transition into middle school. Furthermore, this document offers a framework for designing and implementing a transition program that is suitable for the middle school population needed. It is important for school districts to have a complete and synchronized transition program and to adapt it as changes occur in student populations, school personnel, and community resources.

This book was released on 2008-05-19 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When software development teams move to agile methods, experienced project managers often struggle—doubtful about the new approach and uncertain about their new roles and responsibilities. In this book, two long-time certified Project Management Professionals (PMPRs) and Scrum trainers have built a bridge to this dynamic new paradigm. They show experienced project managers how to successfully transition to agile by refocusing on facilitation and collaboration, not “command and control.” The authors begin by explaining how agile works: how it differs from traditional “plan-driven” methodologies, the benefits it promises, and the real-world results it delivers. Next, they systematically map the Project Management Institute’s classic, methodology-independent techniques and terminology to agile practices. They cover both process and project lifecycles and carefully address vital issues ranging from scope and time to cost management and stakeholder communication. Finally, drawing on their own extensive personal experience, they put a human face on your personal transition to agile--covering the emotional challenges, personal values, and key leadership traits you’ll need to succeed. Coverage includes Relating the PMBOKR Guide ideals to agile practices: similarities, overlaps, and differences Understanding the role and value of agile techniques such as iteration/release planning and retrospectives Using agile techniques to systematically and continually reduce risk Implementing quality assurance (QA) where it belongs: in analysis, design, defect prevention, and continuous improvement Learning to trust your teams and listen for their discoveries Procuring, purchasing, and contracting for software in agile, collaborative environments Avoiding the common mistakes software teams make in transitioning to agile Coordinating with project management offices and non-agile teams “Selling” agile within your teams and throughout your organization For every project manager who wants to become more agile.

When restructures, mergers, bankruptcies, and layoffs hit the workplace, employees and managers naturally find the resulting situational shifts to be challenging.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past four decades the number of students enrolling in colleges and universities requiring at least one pre-college level course has been about one-third of all students. Underprepared students are as likely to complete their academic goals as their prepared counterparts if they are able to complete their remedial course work. This study examined the effects of a summer bridge transition program designed to help student prepare for their first term of college. Three years of summer bridge data were analyzed. In the second year of the summer bridge program mathematics and English components were added to the curriculum. Six hypotheses were tested using separate two by two mixed factorial ANOVAs on credits earned and grade point average, curriculum, by bridge participation. There were no significant differences found between participants of the summer bridge program and non-participants. The results of this study suggest that additional research is necessary to examine the effects of summer bridge programs.
